Impact of aspartate aminotransferase–to–platelet ratio index based score to assess posthepatectomy liver failure in patients with hepatocellular carcninoma

Abstract Background Posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a life-threatening complication following hepatic resection. The aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) is a non-invasive model for assessing the liver functional reserve in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). T...
